Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the rabbit in "A Minor Miracle"?

Answer: Mr. Boggles

When Mr. Boggles hopped away, little Allie Chapman went looking for him and she quickly lost her way in the drainage tunnels under the city. (Allie Chapman was played by Taylor Momsen, who went on to play Cindy Lou Who in "How the Grinch Stole Christmas".)

2. In which episode did Gary dress up as a police officer?

Answer: Show Me The Monet

Gary pretened to be a police officer to help Clive replace a forged painting with the real thing.

3. Fill in the blank: "Count the ______, Gary."

Answer: living

Snow said "Count the living, Gary" in the "Fate" episode. Gary was trapped in the basement of the carpet store and was feeling despondent over Jeremiah's death -- the one man he was unable to save. Snow wanted him to remember all of the people that he was able to save and not dwell on his one failure.

4. What did Chuck bring to Gary's hotel room in "The Pilot" episode?

Answer: Crullers

Gary was staying at the Blackstone Hotel because his wife had locked him out of the house. Chuck stopped by to wish him a happy anniversary. And to offer him a cruller (which they both hate, by the way).

5. What was the name of the weathergirl in the "Weathergirl" episode?

Answer: Rebecca

Gary had a major crush on Rebecca, and used his "early edition" to give her the correct weather forcast. Renee, Erica, and Emma are some of the names of Gary's other girlfriends.

6. What was the name of Rose's twin in the "Rose" episode?

Answer: Lily

Rose was the good twin and Lily the evil twin. This episode was done in the "film-noir" style, complete with a smokey bar-room, low-key lighting, a hard-boiled detective, and a femme fatale.

7. In "Romancing the Throne," what does Princess Sibella tell Gary her name is?

Answer: Lowe

Sibella got the name "Lowe" from the "Lost Chicago" book she found on Gary's coffee table. The author's name is David Lowe. She told him that it was short for "Chloe."

8. In the "Luck of the Irish" episode, Lois says that Gary was conceived where?

Answer: in the back of a Camaro

To quote from the episode, Lois said, "A moment of passion in the back of a Camaro may have led to a wedding, but do you think it guaranteed a successful marriage? No sir, it did not."

9. Gary gets an "early edition" of which newspaper?

Answer: "Chicago Sun-Times"

According to the episode "The Paper," the "Chicago Sun" and the "Chicago Phoenix" merged to form the "Chicago Sun-Times." In reality, the "Chicago Daily Times" merged with the "Chicago Sun" in 1948 to form the present-day "Sun-Times." The "Chicago Tribune" is the other main newspaper in the city.

10. In which episode did the character of "Zeke Crumb" first appear?

Answer: "The Pilot"

Crumb appears in the very first episode of the series as the detective in charge at the scene of the bank robbery.
